Office  of  the  Secretary, 
Washington,  D.  C,  July  30,  1907. 
-     Regulation  35  of  the  Regulations  of  the  Secretary  of  Agriculture  for 
the  Inspection  and  Quarantine   of  Horses,  Cattle,  Sheep,  and  Other 
Ruminants,   and   Swine    Imported    into   the   United   States,   B.   A.   I. 
Order  No.  142,  is  hereby  amended  to  read  as  follows  : 

"Horses  for  breeding,  racing,  show,  and  sale  purposes,  for  grazing  or 
for  work,  shall  be  inspected  at  the  port  of  entry.  Those  belonging  to 
Indian  tribes  and  settlers  or  immigrants  and  those  used  in  connection 
with  stock  raising  (cow  ponies)  or  mining,  and  those  for  temporary 
stay  at  points  along  the  frontier  not  exceeding  two  weeks,  whether  for 
pleasure,  driving,  or  teaming,  shall  be  required  to  pass  a  veterinary 
inspection  at  the  port  of  entry  by  an  inspector  of  the  Bureau  of  Animal 
Industry ;  or  they  may  be  admitted  without  inspection  upon  written 
permission  from  the  Secretary  of  Agriculture  first  had  and  obtained. 
Provided,  however,  that  neither  inspection  by  an  inspector  of  the 
Bureau  of  Animal  Industry  nor  written  permission  from  the  Secretary 
of  Agriculture  shall  be  required  for  Canadian  horses  for  pleasure, 
driving,  or  teaming,  whether  driven  or  ridden  into  the  United  States  for 
a  temporary  stay  of  not  to  exceed  three  clays.  The  same  rule  will  apply 
to  American  horses  returning  to  the  United  States  from  Canada  after  a 
stay  in  Canada  not  to  exceed  three  days.  Horses  may  be  admitted  in 
bond  at  any  port  of  the  United  States  without  inspection  for  export  from 
any  port  of  the  United  States  ;  they  shall,  however,  be  subject  to  inspec- 
tion when  exported  from  ports  at  which  this  Department  has  inspectors 
stationed." 

This  amendment  shall  become  and  be  effective  on  and  after  August 
19,  1907.
